As I understand it electronic shutter just uses the read out of the sensor which if it isn't fast enough can cause motion distortion. Global shutter is an electronic shutter that is able to read all the sensor information nearly instantaneously. Mechanical shutter is as were blades physically block the sensor these can be moved by an electric motor or a spring or was the replacement of the lens cap in the old days.Somewhere I saw some thing about some mirrorless cameras using a combination of mechanical and electronic at the same time under some conditions. Hopefully some will be able to point you to good sources of the information your asking about.</blockquote>
